Without-a-doubt raw slice

Without-a-doubt raw slice? Yep, that’s right. This slice is, without-a-doubt, the most delicious and nutritious raw food creation from my kitchen to date. There is NO coconut oil (I’m rather anti-coconut oil these days given it’s complete lack of health PROMOTING attributes), a plethora of different nuts, and spices – the forgotten flavour-maker to most raw-food bars. Snore no more with date + almond combos! Instead, get this one in your blender!

INGREDIENTS (makes 16-24 pieces)

1½ cups walnuts (180g)

½ cup cashews (75g)

½ cup Brazil nuts (85g)

1 Tbsp nut butter (20g, macadamia nut butter or ABC work well)

1 cup shredded coconut (65g)

1 Tbsp EVOO

½ cup Medjool dates, pitted (5-6 large)

5 Tbsp cacao/cocoa powder (35g)

2 tsp ground ginger

1 tsp mixed spice

1 tsp vanilla

2 pinches fine grain sea salt

NB. If you don’t have the exact amounts of nuts – it doesn’t matter; e.g. in my most recent batch I used 150g walnuts + 30g pecans to make up the balance

METHOD

Prepare a brownie tin by lining it with baking paper

Add all nuts to a high-speed blender, blitz til you get a rough gravel-texture

Press your mixture into the brownie tin, press down firmly with a spatula. Set in the freezer, cut into pieces after a few hours. Given we have used EVOO over coconut oil, best to store it in the freezer too.
